ACT FEST 2026: Insert Coin / Player One

"INSERT COIN / PLAYER ONE" is an electrifying immersive performance blending contemporary dance with a video-game aesthetic, exploring the blurred boundaries between the real and virtual worlds. The audience isn't a passive spectator but becomes an active participant — provoked, seduced, and drawn in by the dancers inside a hyperstylized, surreal video-game environment, as explosive choreography alternates with intimate encounters. A favorite with younger audiences, the show looks at how digital idols shape society and how intimacy is turned into a commodity, with the audience's own choices directly shaping the choreography and the story. Direction and choreography are by Kosta Karakashyan, with music by Martina Stefanova and dancers Aleksandar Gochev, Bilyana Tsolova, Emilia Toncheva, and Neli Georgieva.
